Remember the days when Insomniac gave us gems like Spyro and Ratchet & Clank, Treyarch took us on genre-bending adventures with games like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and SSX, and Naughty Dog crafted unforgettable stories with Jak and Daxter and Uncharted? Those days seem like a distant memory now.

Now, it seems like these developers are only making sequels to single franchises like Marvel's Spider-Man, The Last of Us, God of War, Call of Duty. Why is this?

We're diving deep into the trend of developers prioritizing established franchises over creating new and exciting IPs. We'll explore why this shift is happening, how it impacts gamers, and what the future holds for variety in the gaming industry.

Is this the end of innovation? Are we doomed to an endless cycle of sequels? Join the discussion and share your thoughts in the comments below!
